As you've read before, Pima Community College's Community Campus conducts free lectures "about the peoples, history, cultures and places of Southern Arizona" through its Community Education Lecture Series. Thanks to Dr. Jana Koii, President of PCC's Community Campus, and Anne Warner, Advanced Program Coordinator, (not to mention the Community Campus' media services staff) we are receiving DVDs of these lectures.
Here are the new tracks added to Through Our Parents' Eyes on iTunes U.
- Buck Ryberg of the Desert Sons performing Cool Water and Man Walks Among Us
- Bill Kalt and Richard Dick's histories of the railroad in Tucson
- Diana Hadley's lecture on 300 years of ranching in Southern Arizona
- Casey Dennis lecture about the Riggs family and its involvement in cattle Ranching in Southern Arizona
If you have iTunes installed on your computer, follow this link to open iTunes and go to the UA's Through Our Parents' Eyes iTunes U site. Once there, you can click on GET MOVIE to download individual videos or click on SUBSCRIBE to being a podcast subscription.
The LTC's media services unit will take these videos and encode them for QuickTime streaming making them available from links on webpages.
BTW, I you don't currently have iTunes on your computer I highly recommend that you download and install it. The only caveat is that you have a relatively recent computer and a highspeed Internet connection. Download Apple's free iTunes. Need help understanding any of this? Send an email.
